The moment she sang "looking out, on a morning rain", I was like, is Aretha reincarnated out of the grave? Aretha would definitely disappear into a puddle of tears watching Jennifer up from heaven.
I just saw an interview, where she was talking about how she and Aretha approach things differently -- and she had to find the balance -- based on how her instrument works.
Aretha's voice is huskier in the original recording. HERE you can tell Jen isnt singing like her natural self. This rendition sounds like a game show rendition of Aretha's Tonight Show performance. This recording doesn't give me ONE chill; this is so watered down to me in comparison to the version on Aretha's album!
Seeing Dreamgirls then she won an Oscar, I knew she's perfect choice for the role. Not just a great singer, but she's also a fantastic actress. Cats was terrible but she was easily the best part of the movie
People saying that she doesn't sound like Aretha, first of all she has the closest voice to the queen of soul, secondly she purposely choose not to mimick Aretha's voice, JHud embodied her tone, pitch, and style and that's legendary
She isn't singing in her style. This isn't Jennifer Hudson being JHud. It's Jennifer Hudson embodying Aretha Franklin. The enunciation, the nasality, the riffs. OSCAR FOR HER!!
I agree with Noah here. Yes, she is attempting Aretha’s tone and style, but some of the “brashness” is still present. She sounds better singing these ‘toned down’ songs.
You can definitely tell that she changed her enunciation and really emulated many aspects of Aretha’s voice. She even tried to match Aretha’s tone especially in the first 30 seconds. Bravo Jen. Aretha’s tone was unique/special. No one can 100% recreate that…unrealistic expectations but what Jen did here is magnificent. Plus it was live! Give her all the awards and praise because she deserves it.
Aretha handpicked her for this role, she felt JHud was the one that could really get close to her talent, and she nailed it again...This is absolutely insane
Is this woman for real 🤯🤯🤯 I just saw Aretha's live performance from 1967 on some talk show and when you juxtapose both of these performances, it's hard to distinguish which is Aretha and which is Jennifer. She absolutely killed it as Aretha.
IF JENNIFER DOESN’T WIN THE OSCAR FOR THIS ICONIC ROLE THE WORLD WILL NEVER WATCH/SUPPORT THE ACADEMY AWARDS EVER AGAIN AGAIN‼️‼️‼️‼️ c’mon now y’all hear the same thing I hear 🤯🤯😳😳
I swear and I'm dead serious as well 🤧. Tired of them giving lead actresses oscar to the same white people over and over and totally disregarding the very powerful performances of black actors
@@kemariemaragh-campbell6721 so far Halle Berry is the only black women to win Actress In Leading Role (i think Viola should have won in this year oscar but Nope) I hope Jennifer Hudson will win
@@m.syauqiabdurahman2798 it's a damn shame that halle berry is the only black woman to win lead actress oscar after 20 years!!!! And she isnt even fully black . Viola should have won for the help , gabourie sidibe should have won for precious and many other black actors whom they've robbed. Smh
@@powerpuff_avenger not quite. aretha most likely chose jennifer a) because she liked her and b) Jennifer was getting more and more popular and Aretha wanted someone popular and forthcoming to play her hence making the movie more profitable and successful. JHud actually sings very differently to Aretha.
Get Ready J-Hud And Put Your Oscar On The Shelf! If you don't win its going to be trouble in paradise! It's high time for black folk to shine and sparkles like the Diamond's we are created to be we as black people been held down far to long and children we our Oscar Worthy!

@@santangelogaia19 she definitely did! 🙂 And that was a double reference to her powerful voice, and also the show The Voice (a music talent show, in which she was an amazing Coach) 😉
This is AMAZING.! She changed her tone. You can hear Aretha! Unbelievable how did she do that.Jennifer you should be so proud of yourself! not only are you one of the greatest singers of all time you do it with such gratitude and humility. Beautiful !
Holy shit she is amazing as always! She really embodied Aretha perfectly and this was flawless. She really did her vocals justice! Her music career is going hella STRONG! Keep sanging woman! *throws hat, throws shoes, throws notebooks, throws jackets, throws closets, throws everyone's houses, and throws everyone*
Wow she really transformed her singing style to suit Aretha's, so wonderful. I've probably listened to her sing for hundreds of hours already and this is not how she usually sounds. Huge respect.
Miss Aretha Franklin saw “ The VISION “ for Ms Jennifer Hudson , It’s Official “ The TORCH has Been PASSED and RECEIVED, ❤️👏🏽❤️👏🏽❤️ LOVE ❤️ & Blessings ❤️, Jennifer Hudson 💞
@@kevykavi1985 right?? I’m hoping they give it to Jennifer but that House of Gucci trailer belonged to LadyGaGa and the movie is gonna be awesome. But I’m still holding out hope for Hudson especially after this!

Jennifer nailed Aretha's tone 👌

Look out Golden Globe and Oscar cause Jennifer Hudson is coming for her second one!

@@htmlclass23 maybe because this song was supposed to be a live performance in the movie…….
Aretha herself said Jenifer would be able to deliver and damn was she right. RIP Queen.
Bryce sorry she didn't live to actually witness tunes with the reviews

Lies she sounds loud and brash as usual. Aretha had a honey suckle tone. Jenmifer needed voice lessons.

So true n that's y the queen wanted her to ay her in her biography
I am GAGGING at how well you channel Aretha's voice and style, this is beyond singing, this is acting and skill, im so proud and happy for u
She sounds like Aretha without sounding like she's mimicking her. You can still hear Jennifer in there. This is very well done.
Aretha would be so proud. Great job Jennifer!
Aretha handpicked her for this role, she felt JHud was the one that could really get close to her talent, and she nailed it again...This is absolutely insane
Aretha wanted Halle first .Jennifer had that surgery..

I’m with you on this !
Well let’s hope her acting as Aretha is as good as her singing.
I can’t wait to hear “ain’t no way” 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
You did splendid as Aretha...i wish she could have seen it...she would have been so proud of your performance Mrs. Hudson.
Omg hear the sweet voice 😍 😭 ❤ put some respect 🙌 on her name she neva fail we yet......proud of you Jennifer 👏
Oh my God I'm really crying. She really nailed evoking that Aretha's singing style.
This is a perfect combination of interpretation and fidelity to the Aretha's version. Great job Jhud!
I called the best supporting actress Oscar after Dreamgirls...This will be Oscar #2, Best Actress in a Leading Role!!!!
Lady Gaga “House of Gucci”
@@kevykavi1985 you’re commenting this everywhere, shut up
OMG....JENNIFER... ❤ ❤
YOU ARE AMAZING MAMA
I been riding with you since American Idol.... I LOVE YOU JHUD ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤
She didn't give Jennifer an option. She told her your going to do it...Queen of soul knew the right person to represent her name❤❤❤❤🥰🥰🙏🏽💯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I was one of those Aretha fans who worried, but she hit this out of the park!
The fact that Aretha herself wanted Jennifer to play her in a biopic, should've been the reason for you not to worry in the first place. ;)

okay she sounds exactly like the late aretha franklin’s but still sounds like herself as well.. idk how to emulate it but she deserved an oscar.
Jennifer Hudson, maravilhosa. 🇧🇷
Didn't expect anything less. JHud is fire! 🔥🔥🔥
Looking out on the morning rain
I used to feel uninspired
And when I knew I had to face another day
Lord, it made me feel so tired
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
But you're the key to my peace of mind
'Cause you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman)
And when my soul was in the lost and found
You came along to claim it
I didn't know just what was wrong with me
Till your kiss helped me name it
Now, I'm no longer doubtful of what I'm living for
But if I make you happy I don't need to do more
Because you make me feel
You make me feel
You make me feel like a natural woman (Woman)
Oh, baby, what you've done to me (What you've done to me)
You make me feel so good inside (Good inside)
And I, I just wanna be (Just wanna be)
Close to you, you make me feel so alive
(You make me feel) You make, you make me feel
(You make me feel) Yeah, you make me feel
(You make me feel like a natural woman)
Feel like a natural, you really, really, really
Really, really, really, really, really make feel (Woman, yeah)
You make me feel (You make me feel)

Feel like a natural, sing it again, sing it again (Woman, woman)
You make me feel (Yeah)
